It had been reported in a Sunday newspaper that Bowie had surprisingly given permission for his songs to be used in the show which was to feature a cast of over 30 performers and a live band.
This news seems to be inaccurate as last night David Bowie’s website issued a statement saying: "Neither the David Bowie Organization, nor its co-publishers EMI Music and Chrysalis, has issued a license for this performance at the O2. There are no negotiations pending for a long running musical featuring the music of Mr Bowie."
Must admit I felt a bit uneasy when I checked the O2 website and the musical was not listed, but with statements from the writer and a poster published it seems to be legitimate …
